MAASIN CITY, Southern Leyte, Hulyo 11 (PIA) -- Ang presidente sa Southern Leyte Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SLCCI) miduso alang sa kalambuan nga maugmad ang kultura sa turismo sa lalawigan, labina sa lungsod sa Sogod ug ning siyudad ug sa mga katawhan.
Sa pagpamulong ni SLCCI president Robert Castanares diha sa Maasin Zoo inauguration karong bag-o, gitumbok niya nga ang tourism culture maoy kalag sa turismo, ug nga mas mahinungdanon pa kini kaysa mga talan-awon nga nahimo.
Ang zoo ning siyudad maoy pinaka-ulahi sa kutay sa mga man-made structures nga gihanduraw sa SLCCI aron ang probinsiya magsilbi na nga magnet alang sa mga alegre ug kalingawan.
Iyang gihatagan og kahulugan ang tourism culture, sa yanong pagsabot, ingon nga mga mahigalaon nga mga molupyo ug hinlo nga mga kalungsoran. Gidugang niya nga ang Department of Tourism (DOT) mi-deklarar sa duha lamang ka dapit sa rehiyon diin gika-angkla niini ang turismo, ug kini mao ang Guian ug Southern Leyte.
Walay kuwidawo sa kahigalaon sa mga katawhan sa Southern Leyte, kinsa maabi-abihon sama sa kasagaran nga mga Filipino, apan ang paghatag kabug-aton labot sa kahinlo gitutokan gayod, ngani maisip nga usa na kini ka makadani nga butang sa iyang kaugalingon lamang, si Castanares miingon.
Niya pa nga ang Singapore ug Hong Kong nabantog sa kahinlo busa ang mga tawo mangadto didto.
Iyang giingon nga ang sunod nga gimbuhaton sa SLCCI mao ang pagpasiugda og cleanliness contest sa 18 ka mga lungsod ug usa ka siyudad, sanglit ang usa ka hinlo nga dapit maoy makita nga timaan alang sa excellence ug quality.
Gipahibalo sab ni Castanares nga ang cable car sa Agas-Agas Adventure Park sa Sogod operational na, dugang pa sa zipline nga natukod na diha sa miaging tuig.
Ang zipline, ang zoo, ug lain pang tulo ka mga taliabot nga adventure trails sama sa Silago forest canopy walk, Sogod Bay diving, ug higanting kurus sa Limasawa Shrine mao ang lima ka tourism hubs sa lalawigan.
Ang “Espejo” magazine sa Region 8 nagmantala og duha ka pahina, colored nga advertisements ug mga hulagway nga nagbansiwag sa pahibalo nga ang Southern Leyte mao na ang playground sa Eastern Visayas diha sa April-June 2012 nga isyu niini. (EOPT/Translated by mmp-PIA8, Southern Leyte)

MAASIN CITY, Southern Leyte, July 9 (PIA) -- The president of the Southern Leyte Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SLCCI) pushed for the development of a culture of tourism for Sogod town and Maasin City in Southern Leyte and its people.
“Tourism culture is the soul of tourism. It is more important than the attractions that were built,” SLCCI president Robert Castanares said during the Maasin Zoo inauguration.
The zoo is the latest in a series of man-made structures that the SLCCI envisioned to make the province a magnet for fun and recreation activities.
He defined tourism culture, in very simple terms, to mean friendly residents and clean municipalities. He added that the Department of Tourism (DOT) declared only two places as tourism anchors in Region 8: Guian and Southern Leyte.
There was no question as to the friendliness of the people of Southern Leyte, who are hospitable just like any Filipino but the emphasis on cleanliness was openly underscored, even considering it as an attraction in itself, Castanares said.
“Singapore and Hong Kong are known for its cleanliness, that’s why people go there,” he said.
He said the SLCCI’s next drive will be a cleanliness contest among the 18 towns and one city, saying that a neat and tidy place is “the most visible sign of excellence and quality.”
Castanares also announced that the cable car in Agas-Agas Adventure Park is now operational, in addition to the zip line ride which was established last year.
The zipline, the zoo, and three other upcoming adventure trails such as the Silago forest canopy walk, Sogod Bay diving, and giant Cross at Limasawa Shrine, were considered as the five main tourism hubs of the province.
